Takhat Bahi
Takht Bhai (or Takht Bahi) is a Parthian archaeological site in Mardan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. It was first a Zoroastrian complex which, after the later arrival of Buddhism, was then converted into a Buddhist monastic complex. It is dated to the 1st century BCE. The complex is regarded by archaeologists as being particularly representative of the architecture of Buddhist monastic centers from its era. It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980

This print showcases the majestic Takhat Bahi, an ancient archaeological site in Mardan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Originally a Zoroastrian complex, it later transformed into a Buddhist monastic center after Buddhism's arrival. Dating back to the 1st century BCE, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is considered a remarkable representation of Buddhist architectural excellence during its time. The image captures the essence of this historical gem with vibrant colors and exquisite detail. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate the vastness of the complex against the backdrop of breathtaking mountains and clear blue skies. The absence of people adds an air of tranquility and invites viewers to imagine themselves stepping into this bygone era. As sunlight bathes the scene, it illuminates every aspect— from intricate built structures to lush plants that have witnessed centuries unfold. This photograph transports us through time as we contemplate the rich history embedded within these ancient walls. Takhat Bahi stands as a testament to human ingenuity and spiritual devotion. Its significance lies not only in its religious roots but also in its contribution to our understanding of architecture and archaeology.
